In the past months, we have read article after article about our homeless issue, and Abigail Kawananakoa and her $200 million.
Why doesn’t somebody introduce Twinkle Borge to Kawananakoa? The perfect match. Borge only needs $1.5 million to build her community.
If this works, can you imagine the great partnership and the legacy Kawananakoa could leave behind? She could build Kawananakoa communities all over the island.
While she’s at it, that $200 million could be used to build a Kawananakoa house for the mentally ill, and also a rehabilitation facility to benefit Hawaiian citizens in need.
Instead of being remembered for coveting her estate in court, and sitting on the throne at Iolani Palace, Kawananakoa could be remembered like Bernice Pauahi Bishop for leaving a legacy of hope and kokua for her Hawaiian descendants.
